Let's Fast Forward to Spring

I really can't complain.  We have not had a very cold winter, and

although the snow is covering the mountains just up the street from my

cottage, it has not snowed much down here in the valley.

That being said ...

I am itching to fast forward to spring.  This is the time of the year

when I am tired of down filled coats and wrapping up in scarves and

hunting for my mittens.  I want to be fluffing up my front porch and

leaving the doors wide open to allow Bentley to run freely in and out

of the house.  I want to plant pansies and start working in my garden beds.

But ...

I know it will be a few weeks before that can happen, so you will have

to indulge me as I play with a few things that remind me of spring.  I love

this rusty old trowel.  It is so much more handsome than a new one ~

don't you agree?

Show and Tell Friday

Pink Saturday

Bentley found his "Busy Bee" that he left out in the yard.  It is

almost like a new toy for him now because I think he forgot about it.

Apparently he's not too bummed that a Yorkie did not win the dog show.

Hugs,

Susan and Bentley
